Dutch Cup wrap: PSV through, NAC escape embarrassment

PSV Eindhoven are through to the Dutch Cup fourth round while fellow Eredivisie side NAC Breda narrowly avoided humiliation.

Breda, bottom three in the Netherlands top flight, were pitted against amateur side HBS Craeyenhout for their third-round clash and the unthinkable occurred 37 minutes in when Sami Aoulad Said silenced the home crowd with a goal for the rank outsiders.

Another 34 nervous minutes of playing time passed before Breda finally equalised courtesy of Anthony Lurling and they eventually scraped through by the skin of their teeth 4-2 on penalties, saving themselves considerable blushes in the process.
